I watched it recently and found it surprisingly solid. I could have done without all of the swearing and the stupid dream sequence at the end, but it wasn't bad.

I saw Anchorman 2 recently too, and that was bad. Not a single funny joke in the whole movie, and it went off the rails at the end. Never saw the first movie, but wouldn't bother now.

I have the exact opposite view. And while seeing the first anchorman is not necessary it gives some context of the characters. Million ways to die was absolute drivel horseshit for me with one lame joke after the other.

Got to see Lucy, it started out quite well but then it got very mediocre in the end. I think the movie definitely had a lot of potential to be something good, in the end it became a disjointed mess of a movie. 5/10 blah.

That's exactly how I felt as well. Started with soo much potential, but just ran out of steam. I expected a lot more from the director of 5th element.

Last night, we watched Joe with Nicholas Cage. Wow, that was really good, probably Cage's best film (and best performance) in years, and really the entire cast did a great job. Very engaging.

Agreed! He did an awesome job.

I watched Boyhood the other day. I really enjoyed it. I didn't absolutely love it and think it was the best film made in years like a lot of people seem to, but I thought it was very well made/acted and the concept was great.

Okay, now I know somebody posted about this but I can't seem to find it. I also watched Bad Boy Bubby this week. Fucking weird movie. There were some things I really enjoyed about it, like the idea of seeing the world from this dude's eyes who has never been out of his apartment before. But certain things I had trouble stomaching... surprisingly not the creepy incest, but the kitty abuse/killing. Ugh.

Now, if I have enough energy tonight I will finally watch (yes, for the first time) 2001: A Space Odyssey

The wife and I rented 'ET' on demand tonight and watched it with our boys (5, 7 and 9 yrs) I hadn't seen that movie since I don't know when. It was neat to watch again....especially with my sons. They liked it and I enjoyed the evening as well.

I agree. I actually found the more family drama Anderson movies like Tenenbaums and Darjeeling sort of boring even if they're a little more critically acclaimed.. His adventure ones are much more interesting.
